Nissan Announces U.S. Pricing for 2012 Altima Sedan and Coupe

Nissan North America, Inc. (NNA) today announced U.S. pricing for the 2012 Nissan Altima Sedan and Coupe, which are on sale now at Nissan dealers nationwide.

For 2012, Altima Sedan is again available in three well-equipped models designed to appeal to a broad range of buyer needs and budgets - the 2.5 CVT and 2.5 S CVT featuring a 175-horsepower 2.5-liter inline 4-cylinder and the 3.5 SR CVT with a standard 270-horsepower 3.5-liter V6 engine.

Enhancements for the new model year include a new Value Package, priced at an MSRP of $490, which includes Bluetooth(r) Hands-free Phone System, leather-wrapped steering wheel, steering wheel audio controls, auto /on/off headlight and auto-dimming rearview mirror with HomeLink(r) Universal Transceiver. Also available is the continuation of last year's Special Edition Package. Both are offered with Altima Sedan 2.5 S. The Bluetooth(r) Hands-free Phone System is also now standard on the 3.5 SR and included within the 2.5 S Convenience Package. In addition, a Dark Slate exterior color replaces the previous Metallic Slate.

For 2012, Altima Coupe is again available in 2.5 S and 3.5 SR trim levels, equipped with 2.5-liter inline 4-cylinder and 3.5-liter V6 engines, respectively, and each offered with a choice of a 6-speed manual transmission or Nissan's advanced Xtronic CVT(r) (Continuously Variable Transmission).

Now in the sixth year of its refined fourth generation design, the Nissan Altima Sedan continues to provide an innovative combination of quality, exhilarating performance, sporty design and exceptional value in the mid-size sedan class. With strong sales in the 2011 model year, Altima Sedan's sales momentum shows no signs of slowing down in 2012.

The 2012 Altima Sedan is available in three well-equipped models - the 2.5 CVT and 2.5 S CVT featuring a 175-horsepower 2.5-liter inline 4-cylinder and the 3.5 SR CVT with a standard 270-horsepower 3.5-liter V6 engine.

The 2-door Nissan Altima Coupe, like its 4-door Altima Sedan stablemate, offers high quality and high value - while adding an extra touch of aggressive coupe styling for Altima customers seeking a more personal expression of individuality and sporty appearance. The Altima Coupe's unique exterior design stands out in a crowd of sedan-based 2-door models with magnetic, perfectly proportioned styling and a shorter wheelbase, shorter overall length and lower height than the Altima Sedan. The smaller size and lighter overall weight also contribute to the Coupe's sportier driving feel.
